Craig, you and I connected at a very deep level in Mobile Alabama as just young men, my family loved you and your mom Jill, what an awesome mother and- little sis Tiff, great gal, What amazing people you all were. Craig you were a beautiful, gifted individual. Loved by us all. Already an adult practically at 13, being so mentally gifted you matured so fast. You were truly a wonder, a light in a dark night at a stormy sea, I was that sea captain looking for the lighthouse, and there you were. Can't wait to see you in paradise. Its people like you that motivate me to be there. My love goes out to all your surviving family members....Brenna.....Kayla.....Ryan. God bless you all.

And you know you can call me any time or just drop by the office.

God Bless You,

Brenna, my thoughts and prayers are with you, Kayla, and Ryan. I can only imagine the loss you must feel, Craig will truly be missed.
I take comfort knowing he is pain free, no more shortness of breath, transfusions, or medications. He is in heaven. He is in your heart and by your side always.
Your devotion to him and your love for him gave him comfort and strenth.
Now my prayer is for God to give you and your family comfort and strenth.

"For he has said, I will never leave you or forsake you" Hebrews 13:5.

God Bless you , Love Sherri Slade
